What should I do if my child has chickenpox and a fever?

We all know that babies are usually given some vaccines after they are born. The biggest benefit of these vaccines is to help children prevent diseases. Especially for some epidemic infectious diseases, if you don’t get vaccinated, the consequences will be disastrous if you get infected. Chickenpox is also an infectious disease that children are prone to, but the chickenpox vaccine has not yet become fully popular in some areas. So, what should we do if children have chickenpox and fever?

If a child has chickenpox and a fever, if the condition is not serious, no medication is needed. Physical cooling can relieve the symptoms well. If the fever is severe, you must seek medical attention in time and take medical cooling measures. After all, the fever caused by chickenpox is also a special period and requires special treatment. Do not take medicine blindly on your own, so as not to adversely affect the condition.

Children must pay attention to their diet during the chickenpox period. There are many dietary taboos. They are not allowed to eat spicy foods, and are not allowed to scratch or pick with their hands, so as not to make the infection more serious. Usually chickenpox will improve within a week. During this period, you should drink plenty of water, pay attention to hygiene, keep your skin clean, and use ointment to relieve the symptoms if necessary.

Each child shows different reactions during the illness period. Some children have a mild fever, while others have no other adverse reactions except chickenpox. This shows that physical constitution is also related to the disease. This condition will never recur once you have it. As long as you use the right medication and pay attention to your diet, the symptoms will soon improve. There is no need to worry.

It is recommended to take acyclovir tablets orally and apply acyclovir ointment topically. If you have a fever and the body temperature exceeds 38.5℃, you can take ibuprofen suspension orally to reduce the fever.

If chickenpox causes a high fever and the body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees, use ibuprofen suspension to reduce the fever. If the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees, physical cooling should be used as the main method. Drink more boiled water, use cooling patches, wipe with warm water, pay attention to isolation, and reduce going out.
